Antonia Brickell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antonia Brickell (born 1972) was the presenter of the weekday breakfast show on BBC Radio Sheffield. Her show was broadcast from 5 to 8.30am Monday to Friday until 16th March 2007. She is no longer part of the BBC Radio Sheffield schedule.
Her voice is in the lower register of female vocal frequencies.
Originally from the south of England, Antonia began in radio on Bristol's GWR FM, then moved to Q103 Cambridge. She presented an evening show, then the breakfast show on Radio Northampton from 2001-3. Antonia settled in South Yorkshire when she was offered a job presenting Radio Sheffield's lunchtime slot from March 10th 2003. From there she was moved to a new double-manned breakfast show alongside local comic Toby Foster on September 20th 2004. That show lasted only a few months before the two presenters were given their own slots which run back to back on the station's weekday schedule (Toby presents 8.30-11am) and originally started at 6am.
On Friday 16th March 2007 Antonia broadcast her final Breakfast show on BBC Radio Sheffield. She left to take up the drivetime slot on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, due to begin in April 2007.
